The Lions of the Louvre

Since mid-October, I decided to fill 9 watercolor paper sheets with objects from the Louvre. The museum is doing "nocturnes" every wednesday, and close at 9:30 pm. Few people, ancient objects fulls of history under every windows, that sounds like perfect conditions for sketching !

So I did some sketches from random objects I found in my walkthrough and, as you can see, there are a lot of lions in the museum !

I used a technical pencil filled with black ink, and also a Pentel brush. I added watercolors at home, with photo refs I took with my phone.

Ahoi !
